Oh wow, I'm not sure how I missed this... A happy belated birthday to chasing and a very happy birthday to kibblets. I must actually be working too much...

Does anyone have any recommendations on a good photo sharing program? Since I sold my mac, my .mac account is no longer. I'm trying out Flickr, and well, I don't know if it does everything I need. What are the others? I'm a hardware geek, and far from a software one :)

Ok, so who would have thought that Apple intended for you to CUT the end of the SATA cable off and then route a new cable through in order to replace it?  Not I :)   Someone on the Apple forums had a PDF to the service guide for the G5 and sure enough, it says it right there.
